	<p>libcurl might in some circumstances reuse the wrong connection for
	SMB(S)
transfers.

libcurl features a pool of recent connections so
	that subsequent requests can
reuse an existing connection to avoid
	overhead.

When reusing a connection a range of criteria must be met.
	Due to a logical
error in the code, a network transfer operation that
	was requested by an
application could wrongfully reuse an existing SMB
	connection to the same
server that was using a different "share" than
	the new subsequent transfer
should.

This could in unlucky situations
	lead to the download of the wrong file or the
upload of a file to the
	wrong place. When this happens, the same credentials
are used and the
	server name is the same.</p>
